Verdict
The veteran Steel Wave has won twice already this year including over a longer trip here when Percussion was well beaten. Tiquer and Dreamsundermyfeet won over track and trip last year though neither have been at their best lately while ANIGHTINLAMBOURN was unlucky to unseat at Sedgefield last time having taken a bump at the first fence. Ben Pauling’s charge had won at Huntingdon before that and there looks more to come from her over fences.
